Absolutely Amazing!
Our safaritrip with gemfinders was absolutely Amazing! Our tour Guide Lawrence was the best! He took us to the best places in the nationalparcs, so we could See a Crazy amount of animals close up, and taught us everything about Those animals and a lot about Kenia and it’s Culture itself. We couldn't have wished for a better first safari. It was the best Trip ever!
Thank you Gemfinders and Thank you Lawrence for this Crazy last week:)

Amazing and Shanjoy made it a trip of a lifetime!
Everything from start to finish was excellent. Shanjoy worked very closely with us to customize the perfect trip from start to finish. From customizing accommodations to the ones we wanted (even specific preferences as to rooms), while on the game drives taking our preferences as to animals, timing etc. into account, to helping with boarder crossings/VISA information to make sure the whole trip felt effortless and we could just enjoy! They made everything perfect. Shanjoy's communication was excellent and always made us feel like their main goal was for us to have the exact trip we wanted. Beth and Rodah were amazing. Our guide Kim was also amazing with a wealth of information and was a true ornithologist at heart! We would wholeheartedly recommend Shanjoy to anyone (and already have to friends and family!)

Excellent
We were incredibly lucky to witness lions hunting lions on the second and third days, and even saw a family of lions sharing the carcass and eating raw meat. (Some people say they've been to Africa over ten times and never seen this before. This was all thanks to our guide.) Seeing all this with our own eyes was truly awe-inspiring. Survival of the fittest is a testament to nature. We are grateful to all herbivores; because they are at the bottom of the food chain, they sacrifice themselves to maintain the balance of the entire ecosystem. 🙏 Our guide was especially responsible, working tirelessly from dawn till dusk without complaint. Every day, our safari started at 6:30 am, and he would get up very early from his lodgings, cleaning his car the day before, and then pick us up from our hotel. The roads in the Serengeti are extremely bad and muddy, and his driving skills were superb! 👍 While driving, he would also keep an eye out for rare animals on the roadside grasslands. Also, I must say, the roads in the Serengeti are really bad; we encountered other safari vehicles that got stuck along the way. Our guide tied the ropes up and pulled the car out of the mud [laughing emoji], he was really amazing! And we saw almost everything we wanted to see, so this trip was perfect, no regrets, a truly enriching experience.

Fantastic and timely bus service
Had Tiyani driving us to Johannesburg airport. He kept to the strict time schedule and ensured we all reached the airport in time. Friendly and helpful, fantastic service would book again.

A Dream came true
We booked the Gemfinder Tour starting with Massai Mara, over to Lake Nakuru and then Amboseli. Tracy organzided everything really well and was super available at any time for any question.
Our Guide Lawrence made sure we had THE BEST possible Safari anybody could as for. He was not only patient with us, he also made sure we could see all animals very close but also safe. He always knew what the animals next moves is going to be and made sure to wait or to leave at the right time!
Thank you so much, we will see you again for a Leopard Tour!

Incredible 5 Day Kenya Safari – So Many Amazing Sightings
We did the 5 day / 4 night safari covering Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha and it was honestly one of the best trips we’ve ever done. Huge thanks to our guide Collins who was brilliant throughout the whole safari, really knowledgeable, friendly and incredible at spotting animals we would never have seen ourselves.
We saw an unbelievable amount of wildlife:
* lions including a whole pride moving beside our jeep
* elephants crossing directly in front of us
* cheetah
* giraffes running across the plains
* hippos and crocodiles
* hyenas, jackals, vultures, secretary bird, warthogs and countless zebras/gazelles/wildebeest
The absolute highlight was seeing a leopard up close, which we learned is actually a very rare sighting. Collins managed to spot it perfectly and gave us loads of time to watch and take photos. Definitely a moment we’ll never forget.
Each place felt different too:
* Maasai Mara for the classic safari experience and big cats
* Lake Nakuru for rhinos
* Lake Naivasha for the boat ride, hippos and Hell’s Gate biking/walking
The Maasai village visit was also really interesting and gave a good insight into local culture.
Overall the whole trip was very well organised, great value for everything included, and an experience we’d highly recommend to anyone visiting Kenya for the first time. Ask for Collins if you can, he made the trip even better.

It was very great experience
We came to Tanzania from South Korea for a special honeymoon. Before arriving, we reached out to many different agencies, and none were as kind and quick to respond as Cheetah Company.
Once we arrived in Tanzania, we were paired with our safari guide, Richard. He was incredibly friendly and such a skilled driver that we managed to spot all of the 'Big Five' in Ngorongoro and Serengeti in just one day!
Everything went perfectly—all the accommodations were exactly as promised during booking without any unexpected changes. If any of our friends want to travel to Tanzania, we will absolutely recommend Cheetah Company.
